Assert class

Annotation util for performing build time asserts in the global namespace. This is useful for validating compile-time constants in a way that fails early, before runtime.

For example:

@Assert(
  myBuildTimeVal == 'val_a' || myBuildTimeVal == 'val_b',
  'myBuildTimeVal must be one of "val_a" or "val_b"',
)
const myBuildTimeVal = String.fromEnvironment('MY_VAL');

// Running this with '--define=MY_VAL=foo' will fail compilation.
void main() {
  print('myBuildTimeVal is $myBuildTimeVal');
}
